Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

C++ And Beyond: Discussion - Vittorio Romeo, Kevlin Henney, Nico Josuttis & Kate Gregory - ACCU 2023
It was on the mailing list that screens proposals prior to writing papers. Basically it was for making input much easier to work with, like this: https://github.com/ShakaUVM/read

The Future of Boost by Vinnie Falco
I have thought about submitting a library of mine (https://github.com/ShakaUVM/read) for standardization or inclusion in Boost. Basically it does for input what format did for output - replace the stream system with something more functional.
- Keep getting a loop when I enter a letter instead of a number.
- What are some cool modern libraries you enjoy using?

Read a string from user
Using readlib:
-
Steams operations order?
That's why I wrote my read library (https://github.com/ShakaUVM/read). You can just do:
- Why is my program skipping a cin input?
- Why am I able to capture data from text file with std::ifstream with either std::getline or extraction operator >> but not unable to do so by going back and forth between the two??
- std::cin doesn't work after entering the wrong input
-
What (relatively) easily to implement features would you like to see in c++23.
5) Make input come from functions rather than call by reference, such as what I did here: https://github.com/ShakaUVM/read

How to convert an enum to string in C++
I really like better_enums instead of magic_enums. There’s no limit on enum size with it: http://aantron.github.io/better-enums/
It was heavily used at a former employer of mine, so definitely a solid production-ready solution.

What C++ library do you wish existed but hasn’t been created yet?
IIRC I then switched to another library doing the same stuff: https://github.com/aantron/better-enums It is not as magical, as it uses a special macro to define the enum, using dedicated syntax. So it only works for enums you yourself define. However, it did work a lot better for me with enums with huge values.

Behind the magic of magic_enum
I can't keep up! First we have better enum, then some guy at a conference says we have to use wise enum instead, and now you speak of magic enum!

let's all be chads
If you need a laugh today, look at Better Enums library for C++. If you thought moving from C to C++ would let you leave macros behind, think again! Enums in C++ still suck (a bit less than in C though), so someone built a library to help with that. And it's built on macros. So you can only have 64 entries per enum. And the library's code is barely readable.
